Why Are Lettings Agents Choosing to Outsource Inventory Assembly?

Simply put, expediency and cost. Continuing residential lettings market buoyancy has applied positive pressure effectively forcing agents to re-think their internal staff policies.

In short this has meant staff being re-deployed to accommodate the increased key administration issues. The result is lack of staff availability to attend properties and compile detailed inventory reports.

Consequently, many are now turning to local professional independent inventory service providers, such as EPI, and are quickly realising how cost-effective this move is turning out to be.

Benefits are self-evident: staff focus on core business, matching tenants to landlords: tedious/time-consuming inventory and associated services are entirely eliminated: outsourced inventories are being recognised as genuinely cheaper than those internally-produced and, generally, of higher quality.

Thus outsourcing in this key business area makes good sense for lettings agents and this is now finally being realised and applied, much to the benefit and relief of many.

EPI is pleased to offer its highly-professional inventory services across the West Midlands to all lettings agents/landlords. EPI is purposely growing steadily rather than explosively, thus ensuring new client confidence.
